Who we share your information with
Your trust means everything to us, so we will only share your personal data with a selection of our most trusted partners.
These companies include:
- Processing your orders – payment providers & couriers
- Customer support – online chat, reviews & installation suppliers
- Tackling fraud – cyber security & law enforcement agencies
- Website hosts & maintenance
- Anyone who you give us permission to share your info with
We would like to specifically draw your attention to the fact that we share certain personal information with third parties who help us to detect and prevent fraudulent transactions. The information we share with those third parties includes some of the information that you share with us (such as, your contact details and information about the transaction), and some of the information from your online interactions (such as the IP address of your device). That information is used to determine whether a transaction could be fraudulent.
Finally, we’ll also share your information to comply with the law, enforce our Terms and Conditions and protect the rights, property, and safety of the UrbanElectronics team, our customers, and others.
How long we hold onto your data for
We’ll only keep your information on file for as long as you are a customer. If you haven’t logged onto our website for three years we will delete your information from our systems. If you no longer wish to be a customer, you can also contact our support team and request to delete all the information we have on you.
In some circumstances, like cases of anti-money laundering or fraud, we may keep data longer if we need to or the law says we have to.
Marketing
If you have opted into our marketing messages you’ll receive updates by email and text on product launches and promotions.
No longer want to receive updates from us? No problem, you can stop our marketing by signing into your account and opting out.
Please bear in mind that our site has many inter-connecting services so it may take a few days for our systems to update. Also stopping marketing messages will not stop order related updates.
